Vintage BMW Motorcycle Owners

Not enough and I have a great excuse, San Antonio have seen 3 straight months of record-breaking heat.
I just don't find it appealing for long rides.

Same size front and rear is a must. Heidenau K34 or K36.

Heidenau Vintage tires for me too.
Same size on both.

Not enough, not enough.
I start all of them to keep the carbs from gumming.
Not an excuse but today we will hit 104 F, is not very.

I have to admit I enjoy a lot working on my bikes.

Saludos

I encounter the same problem.

At the end I resorted to Vech and purchased a replacement.

VintageJim I just posted about my R26 generator a few weeks ago. Your cover, coils and generator looks in great shape compared to mine. Everything look clean. Do note unscrew and/or take the field coils out of the housing. They can not simply be reinstalad in the housing/cover. If you just reinstall...

Hi, I'm not an expert of electrics, but what your describe sounds more like a bad ground then blinker drawing current away from the coil.

Just my 2 cents.

Hi Bill, is the fender off the bike?

I’m wondering what it’ll take to get on the road first. (ex: “ I had a bike like that and I spent $_____. my first 12 mo just getting it road ready. Then $____ making it pretty.”) Arlo, without knowing exactly what is wrong with the bike and what parts you would need to replace, what you are asking...

Vech was kind enough of answering me: -You must have a complete R27 crank, with a R27 rod and piston. The rod and piston is different and will not interchange. -- Vech- The previous owner is currently in Switzerland. We will hopefully meet in Mexico City this weekend to uncover more Zenaida's secret...

I think I didn't read this suggestion in the post, I had a similar problem, a faulty ground connection at the armature cover terminal board.
Ground the connector and test.
